Features

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Galaxy Mode

Your workspaces become 3D planets in a living universe. Drill into galaxies, explore worlds, and navigate with spatial memory.

Four Views, One Home

Galaxy for the wow factor. Grid for speed. List for density. Board for drag-and-drop Kanban. Switch instantly with a keystroke.

Multi-Tab Stacks + Session Capture

Launch your entire morning routine from any tab — stack hotkeys now work browser-wide (⌘⇧1–9). Stop mid-flow? One shortcut saves your window as a stack, and a one-click cue reopens your last session.

Command Palette

Hit Cmd+K and do anything — search links, switch galaxies, launch stacks, change settings. Keyboard-first, always.

Galaxy Hierarchy

Universe → Galaxy → World. Three levels of organization that scale from 10 links to 10,000.

Export & Portability

Your config is a JSON file. Export, import, back up, share. Zero lock-in. Your data is always yours.

Daily Atmosphere & Wallpapers

Every day opens differently: a rotating backdrop, a fresh quote, a glowing clock, your streak, and a "Today" chip for what's due. Pick from a built-in cosmic wallpaper pack, upload your own image (stored on-device), and tint the whole UI with your accent color.

Daily Focus

Set today's one focus right on your new tab. Auto-resets daily, toggles done with a click — and follows you across devices on Pro.

Shortcuts Cheatsheet

Press ? to see every shortcut at a glance. G/D/L/B for views, Cmd+K for the palette, [ ] for workspace navigation.

Recent Tabs + Read Later

Restore recently closed tabs in one click — or save the current page for later with ⌘⇧L. Your read-later queue lives in the sidebar and the command palette.

Moon Grouping

Group related links as orbiting moons around a parent planet. Keep your E123 main portal, support site, and admin panel together in one visual cluster.

Planet Customization

Make any planet small, medium, large, or extra-large. Add Saturn-like rings or Jupiter-style gas clouds. Your universe, your style.

Smart Action Hub

Click any planet to summon a radial command ring — open, edit, pin, copy, attach moons, customize style, link notes, and more. Context-aware and always on-screen.

Built-in productivity sidebar

Quick Notes

Capture thoughts instantly. Multiple notes, auto-save, always one click away.

To-do List

Due dates, recurrence ("every weekday"), and natural-language quick add — "call mom tomorrow" just works. Plus a "Today" chip on your new tab.

Calendar

Mini month view with color-coded events. Plan your day without leaving the tab.

Focus Timer

Pomodoro-style timer with ambient soundscapes — rain, deep noise, or a space drone, generated locally.

Weather

Live weather for your location with temperature, conditions, and forecast at a glance.

How It Works

Up and running in 60 seconds

1

Install the extension

One click from the Chrome Web Store. Works on any modern Chromium-based browser.

2

Import your world

The onboarding wizard pulls in your open tabs and top bookmarks, so your very first new tab already has your real sites on it. Takes about a minute.

3

Launch everything faster

Every new tab is now your command center. Search, launch stacks, navigate galaxies — all at the speed of thought.

See It Live

Not just organized.
Beautiful.

Your bookmarks become planets. Your searches become instant. Your workflows launch in one click.

Local-first and private.

Free is local-first: no account, no tracking, no analytics. Your links, workspaces, notes, and todos stay in your browser via chrome.storage.local — we can't see them. Need your setup on every device? Optional Pro sync keeps your data in your own account, protected by per-user row-level security and encrypted in transit and at rest. The only other optional request is the weather widget, which fetches a forecast from Open-Meteo when you turn it on.

No tracking No account on Free Encrypted Pro sync JSON export anytime Weather is opt-in

FAQ

Common questions

Does it slow down my browser?
No. Orbit Station only loads on the new tab page — it doesn't inject scripts into other sites or run in the background. The animations are buttery smooth and use almost zero CPU. Everything loads instantly so your new tab feels snappy every time.
What about my privacy?
Free Orbit Station is local-first and private: no account, no tracking, no analytics. Your links, workspaces, notes, and todos stay in your browser via chrome.storage.local and we cannot see them. Cross-device sync is an optional Pro feature — when you choose to sign in, your own data is synced to your private, account-scoped storage protected by per-user row-level security. The only other optional request is the weather widget (Open-Meteo), which is off by default.
Can I go back to the default new tab?
Yes, instantly. Just disable or remove the extension from your browser's extensions page and your original new tab returns. Your Orbit Station config is also exportable as a JSON file, so you never lose your setup.
Which browsers are supported?
Any modern Chromium-based browser. Safari and Firefox support is planned for a future release.
Do I need to pay to use it?
Orbit Station's full local-first experience is free forever — unlimited workspaces, all views, command palette, notes, todos, and focus timer, with no account required. Pro ($4.99/mo or $39/yr) adds optional cross-device sync and cloud backup, with a 14-day free trial and no credit card required to start.
How does cross-device sync work?
Cross-device sync is an opt-in Pro feature. Sign in once with Google, turn on sync, and your galaxies, links, notes, todos, and settings stay mirrored across every Chrome browser you use — updating in near real-time. Your data lives in your own account-scoped storage with per-user row-level security, encrypted in transit and at rest. You can turn sync off or export everything as JSON at any time.
How is this different from Momentum?
Momentum is a beautiful wallpaper + to-do + weather widget. Orbit Station covers that too — daily wallpapers (built-in pack or your own uploads), to-dos with due dates, weather, a daily quote — and then goes much further: three-level galaxy navigation, multi-tab stacks with per-stack hotkeys, session capture & restore, a command palette for instant actions, keyboard-first design, and deep configurability that scales from 10 links to 10,000.

Ready to launch?

Install Orbit Station in 10 seconds. Set up your galaxies in 60. Never go back to a boring new tab.
